... Assertion: Every integer is a sum of squares of two integers. This is not true. To disprove it, it is enough to find one integer (counter-example) that can’t be written as sum of two squares. Consider 3. Suppose x2 + y2 = 3 for some integers x and y. This means, x2 is either 0, 1 or 2. (Why not any ...
